Cake on a Pop Yumm! Red Velvet!

Well, this time my mom was doing here regular blog checking (reading every bodies updates) and she checks this particular blog named I think My Kitchen Cafe or something but anyway on that blog there was a recipe for Cake Pops....And they looked SO cute the way they showed them and they didn't look that hard to make, so (I happened to be with her) I asked here to print it so that I can make it, that was, I think, a couple months ago. I asked every time I felt like making something "can I make the cake pops" but that answer was always "No" because she usually wants to make something that is new with me, and she was never available. So I didn't make it for a while...then on night I had just finished school and I asked mom and she said "yes"! I was SO excited, so I started with the first step.....

Bake a 9x13 pan of cake, I used Red Velvet, but you can use anything...I just love that kind! You cook it just like you would a regular cake (It says on the box) then (when completely cooked (remember that!)) get a big bowl and crumble it into it, then you take a can full of icing (I used cream cheese Icing because it was Red Velvet cake and that matches, but you can use any kind you like) and put that in the bowl along with the cake, do NOT use all of it, just most of it, leave about 2 Tablespoons in the cup. Mix up with hands or back of spoon (I used my hand because how many times do you get to mix up and crumble a cake with you bare hands? :). Take mixture and roll into quarter sized balls on a wax paper covered baking sheet. Then melt some melting chocolate in a bowl take some lollipop sticks (which you can find a any craft store) and dip just the end of it in the chocolate, and stick it however deep you dipped it in the ball (It should be a little more then 1/2 way) Put them in the freezer long enough so that they are stiff. spoon some more melted chocolate on top of those until covered and gently tap on side of bowl so that all extra chocolate falls off. Then put upside down in a colander, or in some really strong Styrofoam. Let dry and then I put plastic little treat bags on top of them and the tied but you can do anything! Hope you enjoy I might have some pics of other recipes that I have written about but not shown, hopefully!
